I know I'm relatively new here, and by relatively new I mean my membership is less than 24 hours old

. However, I have been a longtime visitor of the site. I would like to propose a motion..

Due to the extremely large number of people exposed to the demo in some way, shape, or form, is it possible that those songs can be treated in a special manner? While elimination from the contest may be extreme, why not designate an imposed penalty (based on the honor system of course) of perhaps 75,000 to 100,000 points based on the first attempt when the game retails. The penalty would need to be decided by the person running the contest. I think, in most cases, a 75-100,000 reduction would result in a score that was even lower than the person's first attempt, at least for these particular songs which many would agree are not unreasonably difficult. However, at least they are receiving partial credit for the song so their overall ranking has a little more grounding to it. Even people who have not played the demo have likely seen footage from several of these songs, as I know The Metal and Rock You Like a Hurricane have had clips featured prominently in promos or websites' coverage of the game, with others appearing widely over the Internet. Getting a -0- for these songs immediately eliminates such people from reasonable contention on the overall rankings, which to be honest is the most appealing aspect of the contest.

Maybe this motion won't be considered seriously, but I think its a topic worthy of thought.

The best average score for all songs sightread is a much, much better solution than the one I proposed, haha. Sorry, I tried to read as much of these posts as I could, but like I said I just registered yesterday so I've been playing serious catch-up. Sounds like a lot of thought has been given into the issue... I'm still excited by the contest, I just which I had known about it prior to playing the demo.

Hopefully people maintain their honesty (which I can tell is generally not a problem here) in regards to the demo songs.. most people will probably have seen parts of these unintentionally through the intense coverage leading up to the games release.

Should be fun in any event.

Pretty much all of the songs on GH3 I listen to almost daily even before they were released for the songlist. Would I still be able to put in scores for that song or not. I wasn't sure because by listening to the songs one could get a good feeling for the strumming patterns as well as the change in note pitches. Just wondering.

@edub004: Listening to the songs will not disqualify you on any songs. You can still submit scores on all of the songs as long as you haven't seen the notecharts on any difficulty or remember what they were if you have seen them.

@DaRealGuitarHero: No, you can't submit scores on those songs, since you have seen the charts on any difficulty. Even if you have seen the chart on medium, you can't submit scores on those songs even if you signed up for hard.

Alright so, we play and then post our score % for each song?

Do you think the hyperspeed code will have been released by the time the game launches? I know there's an option menu for it in-game, but if I was told the facts the right way, I believe you have to input the code first before that even becomes available. When I get this midnight Saturday, I plan on doing my first run-through and contributing the scores for this contest immediately. I'd kick myself if I do it without hyperspeed and then someone finds out the code the next day.

Any word on the hyperspeed code?
